A review by theengineerisreading
Orphan Price by Joel Donato Ching Jacob

4.0

decent follow to Wing of the Locust series and in this book, we follow our newly-formed group that I dubbed as TGLF (Tuan-Gilas-Liksi-Fangren) as they are tasked to visit a neigboring barangay to investigate a mysterious death of their official

i like that this book was written in the point of view of Gilas as we saw more of his perspective and being one of Tuan’s closest childhood friends, it made sense that now that they’re reunited he is the one that acts as Tuan’s right hand

here are some of my favorite lines

“if civilization is built on keeping others poor, keeping them mired in the mud, while others reap the benefits of their hard work, then that is a society i do not want to live in.” -Gilas

“the human mind is frail. memory changes facts regardless of how hard we try to stick to the truth until opinion becomes the truth.” -Lato

Solid 4stars. Excited for book 3
